QUESTION: 7

A shell is fired from a canon with velocity v m/sec at an angle θ with the horizontal direction. At the highest point in its path it explodes into two pieces of equal mass. One of the pieces retraces its path to the cannon and the speed in m/sec of the other piece immediately after the explosion is

A.

3v cos θ

B.

2v cos θ

C.

D.

Solution:

Let '2m' be the mass of the cannon which is projected with velocity 'v' at an angle 'θ' with the horizontal direction
The horizontal component of the velocity of the cannon is, vx = v cosθ.
This component remains constant
At the maximum height, the cannon has only this component as the vertical component is momentarily zero

So, momentum before exploding = 2mv cosθ
After exploding one of the masses retraces the path of the cannon backwards
This is possible on if the part has velocity '-v cosθ'
Therefore, momentum after explosion = -mv cosθ + mu
So, by conservation of momentum
2mv cosθ = -mv cosθ + mu
⇒ u = (3v cosθ) m/s

B.

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C.

Assertion is true but reason is false.

D.

Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

Aldosterone is a hormone that increases the reabsorption of sodium ions and water and the release (secretion) of potassium ions in the distal convoluted tubules of the kidneys. This increases blood volume and, therefore, increases blood pressure.
Acting on the nuclear mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) within the principal cells of the distal tubule and the collecting duct of the kidney nephron, it upregulates and activates the basolateral Na+ or K+ pumps, stimulating ATP hydrolysis leading to phosphorylation of the pump and a conformational change in the pump exposes the Na+ ions to the outside. The phosphorylated form of the pump has a low affinity for Na+ ions, hence reabsorbing sodium (Na+) ions and water into the blood, and secreting potassium (K+) ions into the urine. Aldosterone stimulates uptake of K+ into cells.Aldosterone stimulates Na+ and water reabsorption from the gut salivary and sweat glands in exchange for K+. Aldosterone stimulates H+ secretion by intercalated cells in the collecting duct, regulating plasma bicarbonate (HCO3-) levels and its acid/base balance.

Solution:

Old age is the result of ageing or senescence which may be defined as the progressive deterioration in structure and function of the body cells, tissues, organs and organ systems of the organism with their advancing age.In old age the body's immune system loses its ability to effectively deal with the antigens. This reduces the resistance as well as adaptation of the body.
Cessation of mitosis is not as such a genetically programmed event. During ageing, there is a decrease in multiplication of cells though it differs in various tissues.

QUESTION: 137

B.

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C.

Assertion is true but reason is false.

D.

Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

When an organ, such as a liver, heart or kidney, is transplanted from one person into another , the immune system of the recipient triggers the same response against the new organ that it would have against any foreign material, setting off a chain of events that can damage the transplanted organ. This process is called rejection. Acute rejection can occur rapidly , or chronic rejection over a long period of time . Rejection can occur despite close matching of the donated organ and the transplant patient. Immunosuppressant drugs greatly decrease the risks of rejection, protecting the new organ and preserving its function. These drugs act by blocking the recipient's immune system so that it is less likely to react against the transplanted organ. A wide variety of drugs are available to achieve this aim but work in different ways to reduce the risk of rejection.
Tissues that are antigenitically similar are said to be histocompatible such tissues do not induce an immunologic response that leads to graft rejection. Tissues displaying significant antigenic differences are histoincompatible; such tissues induce immune response leading to tissue rejection. Antigens that participate in graft rejection are called as transplantation or histocompatibility antigens. The blood group antigens are important in transplantation. The term major histocompatibility system is applied to a system of cell antigens that exert a decisive influence on the fate of allografts. The major antigen system in human beings is the human leucocytes antigen (HLA) system.

QUESTION: 138

In the following question, a statement of Assertion(A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason(R). Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): Cyclic pathway of photosynthesis first appeared in some eubacterial species.
Reason(R): Oxygen started accumulating in the atmosphere after the non-cyclic pathway of photosynthesis evolved.

A.

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B.

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C.

Assertion is true but reason is false.

D.

Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

Cyclic pathway of photosynthesis appeared for the first time in some Eubacterial species. It is supposed to be the first evidence of production of ATP in the presence of light.
During non-cyclic photophosphorylation photolysis of water takes place. Under the influence of light energy and the catalytic action of chlorophyll, water, a substance of low energy value, is split into oxygen and hydrogen. Oxygen is used in the chloroplast. Non-cyclic photophosphorylation is the only natural process which adds molecular oxygen to the atmosphere.

QUESTION: 141

In the following question, a statement of Assertion(A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason(R). Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): Generally, a woman does not conceive during the lactation period.
Reason(R): The hormone 'prolactin' initiates and maintains lactation in a postpartum woman.

A.

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B.

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C.

Assertion is true but reason is false.

D.

Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

Generally a woman does not conceive during the lactation period. LActation stimulates prolactin secretion and there is evidence that prolactin inhibits GnRH secretion and antagonizes the action of gonadotropins on the ovaries. Ovulation is inhibited and the ovaries are inactive so estrogen and progestrone output falls to low levels.Only 5 to 10 % chances of getting pregnant are there during lactation period.
Prolactin is a protein hormone of the adenohypophysis of the pituitary gland that induces and maintains lactation in the postpartum mammalian female .

QUESTION: 142

In the following question, a statement of Assertion(A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason(R). Read the statements carefully, and mark the correct answer.
Assertion(A): Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation occurs in the cytoplasm.
Reason(R): mRNA is transferred from the nucleus into the cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acid are available for protein synthesis.

A.

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B.

Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C.

Assertion is true but reason is false.

D.

Both assertion and reason are false.

Solution:

DNA replication is the process of forming carbon copy of DNA whereas transcription is the formation of RNA over DNA template.DNA replication and transcription takes place in nucleus as the required material DNA and RNA are present in the nucleus.
During transcription mRNA take the coded information from DNA to the cytoplasm where translation takes place. Translation is the process of protein synthesis. It is separated from transcription in both space and time. It prevents the intermixing of raw materials, protect DNA from respiratory enzymes and ribosomal machinery from nuclease.
